Friedrich Georg Jünger (1 September 1898, in Hannover — 20 July 1977, in Überlingen) was a German poet, author, and cultural critic essayist.
The younger brother of Ernst Jünger, he volunteered for military service in 1916 and was seriously wounded in the Battle of Langemarck.
After the First World War he studied law and cameralism at the universities of Leipzig and Halle-Wittenberg. In Der Aufmarsch des Nationalismus, Jünger praised the virility of the Nazi movement in the following terms: "Let thousands, nay millions, die; what meaning have these rivers of blood in comparison with a state, into which flow all the disquiet and longing of the German being!"
